Life Today with James Robison | Margaret Feinberg - Holy Spirit Insight | August 5, 2025

Do you sometimes feel like god is trying
00:00:06.429 --> 00:00:09.099
To communicate with you through your dreams?
00:00:09.099 --> 00:00:12.335
>> holy spirit, what are you bringing to the surface here?
00:00:12.335 --> 00:00:15.105
Are you bringing anxieties? are you bringing fears?
00:00:15.105 --> 00:00:17.774
Are you bringing something that i need
00:00:17.774 --> 00:00:19.476
To bring to you in prayer?
00:00:19.476 --> 00:00:21.211
When we approach with that humility
00:00:21.211 --> 00:00:23.079
And that open-handedness, we start to see
00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:25.982
Where holy spirit can be bringing things,
00:00:25.982 --> 00:00:28.685
Communicating things, and leading and guiding us
00:00:28.685 --> 00:00:31.054
Closer to the heart of christ.
00:00:31.054 --> 00:00:33.056

So i'm going to dive all the way in. i just want to say
00:02:28.004 --> 00:02:29.172
All the way in. i just want to say up at the top, like, as
00:02:29.239 --> 00:02:30.273
I just want to say up at the top, like, as you were writing this book,
00:02:30.340 --> 00:02:31.407
Up at the top, like, as you were writing this book, and i want to tell you,
00:02:31.474 --> 00:02:32.475
You were writing this book, and i want to tell you, it's such a good book
00:02:32.542 --> 00:02:33.576
And i want to tell you, it's such a good book on the holy spirit!
00:02:33.643 --> 00:02:34.711
It's such a good book on the holy spirit! and for a girl that was
00:02:34.777 --> 00:02:35.812
On the holy spirit! and for a girl that was raised in the church
00:02:35.878 --> 00:02:37.113
And for a girl that was raised in the church my whole life, there is
00:02:37.180 --> 00:02:38.281
Raised in the church my whole life, there is so much stuff i learned.
00:02:38.348 --> 00:02:40.116
My whole life, there is so much stuff i learned. because i really thought
00:02:40.183 --> 00:02:41.284
So much stuff i learned. because i really thought for me, like the holy spirit
00:02:41.351 --> 00:02:42.552
Because i really thought for me, like the holy spirit was really in acts two,
00:02:42.619 --> 00:02:43.620
For me, like the holy spirit was really in acts two, kind of holy spirit,
00:02:43.686 --> 00:02:44.687
Was really in acts two, kind of holy spirit, the pentecost,
00:02:44.754 --> 00:02:45.755
Kind of holy spirit, the pentecost, and that's when he came.
00:02:45.822 --> 00:02:46.823
The pentecost, and that's when he came. so i kind of missed a lot
00:02:46.889 --> 00:02:48.358
And that's when he came. so i kind of missed a lot about the old testament.
00:02:48.424 --> 00:02:49.425
So i kind of missed a lot about the old testament. i think you really cover
00:02:49.492 --> 00:02:50.493
About the old testament. i think you really cover a lot of that.
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:51.561
I think you really cover a lot of that. so can we start there
00:02:51.628 --> 00:02:52.629
A lot of that. so can we start there and kind of unfold there
00:02:52.695 --> 00:02:53.696
So can we start there and kind of unfold there and what you experienced
00:02:53.763 --> 00:02:54.764
And kind of unfold there and what you experienced writing this book?
00:02:54.831 --> 00:02:55.832
To write a book
00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:57.967
To write a book on the holy spirit,
00:02:58.034 --> 00:02:59.035
On the holy spirit, i realized it was huge,
00:02:59.102 --> 00:03:00.336
I realized it was huge, like writing a book on god.
00:03:00.403 --> 00:03:01.604
Like writing a book on god. like, where do you even begin?
00:03:01.671 --> 00:03:02.805
Like, where do you even begin? and like you, i mean,
00:03:02.872 --> 00:03:03.973
And like you, i mean, i grew up in a church when
00:03:04.040 --> 00:03:05.174
Who is holy spirit?
00:03:06.909 --> 00:03:08.011
Who is holy spirit? how does holy spirit work?
00:03:08.077 --> 00:03:09.112
Who is holy spirit? how does holy spirit work? and people would tell me
00:03:09.178 --> 00:03:10.179
How does holy spirit work? and people would tell me exactly what you're saying,
00:03:10.246 --> 00:03:11.281
And people would tell me exactly what you're saying, acts two, the book of acts.
00:03:11.347 --> 00:03:12.448
Exactly what you're saying, acts two, the book of acts. you'd see all of
00:03:12.515 --> 00:03:13.483
Acts two, the book of acts. you'd see all of these stories and displays
00:03:13.549 --> 00:03:14.584
You'd see all of these stories and displays and they are awesome.
00:03:14.651 --> 00:03:15.652
These stories and displays and they are awesome. there's only one
00:03:15.718 --> 00:03:16.719
And they are awesome. there's only one little problem.
00:03:16.786 --> 00:03:17.920
There's only one little problem. my everyday life does not
00:03:17.987 --> 00:03:18.955
Little problem. my everyday life does not look like that.
00:03:19.022 --> 00:03:20.356
My everyday life does not look like that. there's no violent wind
00:03:20.423 --> 00:03:22.558
Look like that. there's no violent wind and tongues of fire
00:03:22.625 --> 00:03:23.660
There's no violent wind and tongues of fire and 3000 people
00:03:23.726 --> 00:03:24.727
And tongues of fire and 3000 people rushing to know jesus.
00:03:24.794 --> 00:03:25.795
And 3000 people rushing to know jesus. tammy: well, there is for me.
00:03:25.862 --> 00:03:26.863
Rushing to know jesus. tammy: well, there is for me. i don't know
00:03:26.929 --> 00:03:27.930
Tammy: well, there is for me. i don't know what's wrong with you girls.
00:03:27.997 --> 00:03:31.000
I don't know what's wrong with you girls. margaret: give me some!
00:03:31.067 --> 00:03:32.302
What's wrong with you girls. margaret: give me some! tammy: i will. i will.
00:03:32.368 --> 00:03:33.569
Margaret: give me some! tammy: i will. i will. margaret: but what i realized
00:03:33.636 --> 00:03:34.871
Tammy: i will. i will. margaret: but what i realized is that that is just
00:03:34.937 --> 00:03:36.606
Margaret: but what i realized is that that is just the culmination of the work
00:03:36.673 --> 00:03:38.107
Is that that is just the culmination of the work of the spirit
00:03:38.174 --> 00:03:39.208
The culmination of the work of the spirit throughout the old testament.
00:03:39.275 --> 00:03:40.677
Of the spirit throughout the old testament. and to jump straight
00:03:40.743 --> 00:03:41.878
Throughout the old testament. and to jump straight to acts two would be like
00:03:41.944 --> 00:03:43.012
And to jump straight to acts two would be like showing up on your wedding day
00:03:43.079 --> 00:03:44.147
To acts two would be like showing up on your wedding day and being like, who is this?
00:03:44.213 --> 00:03:45.281
Showing up on your wedding day and being like, who is this? how do we court?
00:03:45.348 --> 00:03:46.349
And being like, who is this? how do we court? how do we fall in love?
00:03:46.416 --> 00:03:47.450
How do we court? how do we fall in love? and yet, when we start
00:03:47.517 --> 00:03:48.751
How do we fall in love? and yet, when we start to look for holy spirit
00:03:48.818 --> 00:03:49.786
And yet, when we start to look for holy spirit in the old testament,
00:03:49.852 --> 00:03:51.054
To look for holy spirit in the old testament, all of a sudden,
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:52.155
In the old testament, all of a sudden, when we understand the rule
00:03:52.221 --> 00:03:53.289
All of a sudden, when we understand the rule throughout the history
00:03:53.356 --> 00:03:54.624
When we understand the rule throughout the history and the patriarchs
00:03:54.691 --> 00:03:55.825
Throughout the history and the patriarchs and the prophets
00:03:55.892 --> 00:03:57.460
And the patriarchs and the prophets and the judges, and
00:03:57.527 --> 00:03:58.628
And the prophets and the judges, and we finally get to acts two,
00:03:58.695 --> 00:04:00.163
And the judges, and we finally get to acts two, we start to think, oh,
00:04:00.229 --> 00:04:01.197
We finally get to acts two, we start to think, oh, of course it would
00:04:01.264 --> 00:04:02.465
Blynda: in fact, i remember
00:04:04.467 --> 00:04:05.668
Blynda: in fact, i remember you even pointing out
00:04:05.735 --> 00:04:06.803
You even pointing out that genesis 1:2 scripture
00:04:06.869 --> 00:04:07.904
That genesis 1:2 scripture and you reference the mayhem,
00:04:07.970 --> 00:04:09.205
So here we are,
00:04:10.973 --> 00:04:14.344
So here we are, instead of acts,
00:04:14.410 --> 00:04:15.445
So here we are, instead of acts, we're at the very beginning
00:04:15.511 --> 00:04:16.846
Instead of acts, we're at the very beginning of the word of god.
00:04:16.913 --> 00:04:18.948
We're at the very beginning of the word of god. so explain the mayhem
00:04:19.015 --> 00:04:20.650
Of the word of god. so explain the mayhem that you talk about
00:04:20.717 --> 00:04:21.684
So explain the mayhem that you talk about and how the holy spirit
00:04:21.751 --> 00:04:23.052
That you talk about and how the holy spirit makes himself known.
00:04:23.119 --> 00:04:25.221
And how the holy spirit makes himself known. margaret: it's always
00:04:25.288 --> 00:04:26.222
Makes himself known. margaret: it's always important in scripture,
00:04:26.289 --> 00:04:27.256
Margaret: it's always important in scripture, whenever someone is introduced
00:04:27.323 --> 00:04:28.725
Important in scripture, whenever someone is introduced to always pay attention
00:04:28.791 --> 00:04:30.293
Whenever someone is introduced to always pay attention to that introduction.
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:31.394
To always pay attention to that introduction. for instance, saul is hiding
00:04:31.461 --> 00:04:32.829
To that introduction. for instance, saul is hiding among the baggage
00:04:32.895 --> 00:04:34.230
For instance, saul is hiding among the baggage and can't find his own donkey.
00:04:34.297 --> 00:04:35.331
Among the baggage and can't find his own donkey. it tells us something
00:04:35.398 --> 00:04:36.833
And can't find his own donkey. it tells us something about the character of.
00:04:36.899 --> 00:04:38.401
It tells us something about the character of. and so we go to genesis,
00:04:38.468 --> 00:04:40.169
About the character of. and so we go to genesis, where genesis 1:1, 2,
00:04:40.236 --> 00:04:41.337
And so we go to genesis, where genesis 1:1, 2, "in the beginning,
00:04:41.404 --> 00:04:42.405
Where genesis 1:1, 2, "in the beginning, god created the heavens
00:04:42.472 --> 00:04:43.573
"in the beginning, god created the heavens and the earth.
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:44.640
God created the heavens and the earth. it was formless and void."
00:04:44.707 --> 00:04:46.109
And the earth. it was formless and void." a word in hebrew,
00:04:46.175 --> 00:04:47.276
It was formless and void." a word in hebrew, "tohu wabohu."
00:04:47.343 --> 00:04:49.812
A word in hebrew, "tohu wabohu." and that that represents
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:51.447
"tohu wabohu." and that that represents the deep cosmic,
00:04:51.514 --> 00:04:53.816
And that that represents the deep cosmic, and the chaotic abyss
00:04:53.883 --> 00:04:55.084
The deep cosmic, and the chaotic abyss of the open sea.
00:04:55.151 --> 00:04:56.786
And the chaotic abyss of the open sea. and yet, it was there
00:04:56.853 --> 00:04:58.254
Of the open sea. and yet, it was there that the spirit was hovering,
00:04:58.321 --> 00:05:00.256
Over that.
00:05:02.892 --> 00:05:04.260
Over that. so, we think about how is
00:05:04.327 --> 00:05:05.661
So, we think about how is holy spirit introduced
00:05:05.728 --> 00:05:06.863
Holy spirit introduced in scripture?
00:05:06.929 --> 00:05:08.097
In scripture? he's introduced as someone
00:05:08.164 --> 00:05:09.365
He's introduced as someone who is hovering and drawing
00:05:09.432 --> 00:05:11.067
To the uncertainty,
00:05:12.568 --> 00:05:14.470
To the uncertainty, and to the unknown.
00:05:14.537 --> 00:05:16.239
To the uncertainty, and to the unknown. what comfort for you
00:05:16.305 --> 00:05:17.874
And to the unknown. what comfort for you and for i, that that is not
00:05:17.940 --> 00:05:19.575
What comfort for you and for i, that that is not just a cosmic reality
00:05:19.642 --> 00:05:20.910
And for i, that that is not just a cosmic reality of what the spirit of
00:05:20.977 --> 00:05:22.078
Just a cosmic reality of what the spirit of the living god is doing, but
00:05:22.145 --> 00:05:23.312
Of what the spirit of the living god is doing, but it's personal to each of us
00:05:23.379 --> 00:05:25.014
The living god is doing, but it's personal to each of us in those places
00:05:25.081 --> 00:05:26.249
It's personal to each of us in those places and those spaces,
00:05:26.315 --> 00:05:27.350
In those places and those spaces, for some of our viewers,
00:05:27.417 --> 00:05:28.484
And those spaces, for some of our viewers, who it feels scary
00:05:28.551 --> 00:05:29.986
For some of our viewers, who it feels scary and unknown, and uncertain
00:05:30.052 --> 00:05:31.888
Who it feels scary and unknown, and uncertain that the holy spirit
00:05:31.954 --> 00:05:33.523
And unknown, and uncertain that the holy spirit draws near.
00:05:33.589 --> 00:05:35.258
That the holy spirit draws near. the stories of the ways
00:05:35.324 --> 00:05:36.526
Draws near. the stories of the ways that he does it,
00:05:36.592 --> 00:05:37.660
The stories of the ways that he does it, once we start talking
00:05:37.727 --> 00:05:38.861
That he does it, once we start talking among believers, is
00:05:38.928 --> 00:05:40.229
Once we start talking among believers, is so personal and so powerful.
00:05:40.296 --> 00:05:42.565
Among believers, is so personal and so powerful. tammy: so why do people
00:05:42.632 --> 00:05:43.766
So personal and so powerful. tammy: so why do people think, and i thought to,
00:05:43.833 --> 00:05:45.835
Tammy: so why do people think, and i thought to, we're going to need
00:05:45.902 --> 00:05:47.136
Because i think a lot
00:05:48.671 --> 00:05:49.605
Because i think a lot of people think, well,
00:05:49.672 --> 00:05:50.907
Of people think, well, back in the old testament,
00:05:50.973 --> 00:05:52.275
Back in the old testament, did the holy spirit
00:05:52.341 --> 00:05:53.309
Did the holy spirit dwell within everyone or
00:05:53.376 --> 00:05:55.378
Or for specific tasks?
00:05:57.513 --> 00:06:00.650
Or for specific tasks? how do we look at that?
00:06:00.716 --> 00:06:02.552
Or for specific tasks? how do we look at that? what did you learn?
00:06:02.618 --> 00:06:03.953
How do we look at that? what did you learn? margaret: it's interesting,
00:06:04.020 --> 00:06:05.021
What did you learn? margaret: it's interesting, and i have heard that often.
00:06:05.087 --> 00:06:06.389
Margaret: it's interesting, and i have heard that often. the holy spirit only
00:06:06.456 --> 00:06:07.457
And i have heard that often. the holy spirit only showed up for certain people,
00:06:07.523 --> 00:06:08.524
The holy spirit only showed up for certain people, certain times,
00:06:08.591 --> 00:06:09.592
Showed up for certain people, certain times, certain places, and
00:06:09.659 --> 00:06:10.660
Certain times, certain places, and it's kind of like this box
00:06:10.726 --> 00:06:12.028
Certain places, and it's kind of like this box or restriction.
00:06:12.094 --> 00:06:13.095
It's kind of like this box or restriction. a wonderful theologian,
00:06:13.162 --> 00:06:14.163
Or restriction. a wonderful theologian, once said,
00:06:14.230 --> 00:06:15.231
A wonderful theologian, once said, "never let the bible get
00:06:15.298 --> 00:06:16.999
Once said, "never let the bible get in the way of tidy theology."
00:06:17.066 --> 00:06:18.835
"never let the bible get in the way of tidy theology." in other words, it's lovely
00:06:18.901 --> 00:06:20.770
In the way of tidy theology." in other words, it's lovely to create those categories,
00:06:20.837 --> 00:06:22.305
In other words, it's lovely to create those categories, but once you start looking
00:06:22.371 --> 00:06:24.207
To create those categories, but once you start looking for holy spirit
00:06:24.273 --> 00:06:25.374
But once you start looking for holy spirit in the old testament,
00:06:25.441 --> 00:06:26.909
For holy spirit in the old testament, you have all these moments
00:06:26.976 --> 00:06:28.811
In the old testament, you have all these moments where he is indwelling,
00:06:28.878 --> 00:06:30.480
You have all these moments where he is indwelling, bazello
00:06:30.546 --> 00:06:31.981
Where he is indwelling, bazello in the book of numbers,
00:06:32.048 --> 00:06:34.116
Bazello in the book of numbers, or in different people
00:06:34.183 --> 00:06:35.818
In the book of numbers, or in different people who he's indwelling,
00:06:35.885 --> 00:06:37.086
Or in different people who he's indwelling, he's filling,
00:06:37.153 --> 00:06:38.154
Who he's indwelling, he's filling, he's pouring out.
00:06:38.221 --> 00:06:39.422
He's filling, he's pouring out. we see him in the life
00:06:39.489 --> 00:06:41.991
He's pouring out. we see him in the life of daniel, joseph, ezekiel,
00:06:42.058 --> 00:06:43.693
We see him in the life of daniel, joseph, ezekiel, and so many others.
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:45.094
Of daniel, joseph, ezekiel, and so many others. and we know the holy spirit
00:06:45.161 --> 00:06:46.195
And so many others. and we know the holy spirit comes and fills them, but
00:06:46.262 --> 00:06:47.296
And we know the holy spirit comes and fills them, but the scripture never notes
00:06:47.363 --> 00:06:48.865
Comes and fills them, but the scripture never notes that the spirit left
00:06:48.931 --> 00:06:50.566
The scripture never notes that the spirit left in so many of those cases.
00:06:50.633 --> 00:06:52.468
And look a little bit closer
00:06:54.103 --> 00:06:55.505
And look a little bit closer and go, wait a second.
00:06:55.571 --> 00:06:56.739
And go, wait a second. holy spirit sure is filling
00:06:56.806 --> 00:06:57.907
Holy spirit sure is filling a whole lot of people
00:06:57.974 --> 00:06:59.041
A whole lot of people accomplishing a whole lot
00:06:59.108 --> 00:07:00.176
Accomplishing a whole lot of god's purposes
00:07:00.243 --> 00:07:01.410
Of god's purposes in surprising
00:07:01.477 --> 00:07:02.545
Blynda: i was really
00:07:03.913 --> 00:07:05.181
Blynda: i was really interested in tying into that,
00:07:05.248 --> 00:07:07.517
Blynda: i was really interested in tying into that, how often it was pointed out
00:07:07.583 --> 00:07:09.819
Interested in tying into that, how often it was pointed out that really through dreams,
00:07:09.886 --> 00:07:11.787
Made visitation.
00:07:13.556 --> 00:07:15.825
Made visitation. in the old testament,
00:07:15.892 --> 00:07:17.159
In the old testament, for sure, we have that.
00:07:17.226 --> 00:07:18.694
For sure, we have that. joseph was even able
00:07:18.761 --> 00:07:19.896
Joseph was even able to interpret the dreams.
00:07:19.962 --> 00:07:21.397
As we take it from
00:07:23.432 --> 00:07:24.834
As we take it from old testament and what
00:07:24.901 --> 00:07:26.235
As we take it from old testament and what you do so well in the book
00:07:26.302 --> 00:07:27.470
Old testament and what you do so well in the book is taking it
00:07:27.537 --> 00:07:28.604
You do so well in the book is taking it from old testament, but
00:07:28.671 --> 00:07:29.805
Is taking it from old testament, but you do bring us to pentecost
00:07:29.872 --> 00:07:30.973
From old testament, but you do bring us to pentecost because you're letting us,
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:32.275
You do bring us to pentecost because you're letting us, as the reader,
00:07:32.341 --> 00:07:33.609
Because you're letting us, as the reader, see that it is from
00:07:33.676 --> 00:07:34.911
As the reader, see that it is from the beginning to the end.
00:07:34.977 --> 00:07:36.145
See that it is from the beginning to the end. this is the triune,
00:07:36.212 --> 00:07:38.214
The beginning to the end. this is the triune, the part of the triune god
00:07:38.281 --> 00:07:40.783
This is the triune, the part of the triune god that is present
00:07:40.850 --> 00:07:41.951
The part of the triune god that is present throughout the whole bible.
00:07:42.018 --> 00:07:43.753
That is present throughout the whole bible. so, in the part about
00:07:43.819 --> 00:07:45.221
Throughout the whole bible. so, in the part about the dreams, how do you see
00:07:45.288 --> 00:07:46.589
So, in the part about the dreams, how do you see that in the old testament?
00:07:46.656 --> 00:07:47.723
The dreams, how do you see that in the old testament? how did that start raising
00:07:47.790 --> 00:07:49.358
That in the old testament? how did that start raising your understanding of the
00:07:49.425 --> 00:07:51.861
How did that start raising your understanding of the presence of the holy spirit?
00:07:51.928 --> 00:07:53.195
Your understanding of the presence of the holy spirit? margaret: we discovered that
00:07:53.262 --> 00:07:54.564
Presence of the holy spirit? margaret: we discovered that the holy spirit works
00:07:54.630 --> 00:07:55.865
Margaret: we discovered that the holy spirit works the night hours.
00:07:55.932 --> 00:07:57.099
The holy spirit works the night hours. tammy: i love that!
00:07:57.166 --> 00:07:58.200
The night hours. tammy: i love that! it's when i need him the most
00:07:58.267 --> 00:07:59.435
Tammy: i love that! it's when i need him the most is when i'm sleeping.
00:07:59.502 --> 00:08:01.404
It's when i need him the most is when i'm sleeping. praying over me.
00:08:01.470 --> 00:08:02.972
Is when i'm sleeping. praying over me. margaret: so many of us think
00:08:03.039 --> 00:08:04.340
Praying over me. margaret: so many of us think that the holy spirit is
00:08:04.407 --> 00:08:05.441
Margaret: so many of us think that the holy spirit is working in the day
00:08:05.508 --> 00:08:06.475
That the holy spirit is working in the day not realizing no, no,
00:08:06.542 --> 00:08:07.510
Working in the day not realizing no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:08:07.577 --> 00:08:08.611
Not realizing no, no, no, no, no, no! he's not napping when we are.
00:08:08.678 --> 00:08:09.946
No, no, no, no! he's not napping when we are. he is active and engaged.
00:08:10.012 --> 00:08:11.581
He's not napping when we are. he is active and engaged. we see that in the life
00:08:11.647 --> 00:08:12.815
He is active and engaged. we see that in the life of joseph who was not only
00:08:12.882 --> 00:08:14.150
We see that in the life of joseph who was not only given dreams but also
00:08:14.216 --> 00:08:15.418
Of joseph who was not only given dreams but also dream interpretation.
00:08:15.484 --> 00:08:17.186
Given dreams but also dream interpretation. it is interesting to note
00:08:17.253 --> 00:08:18.354
Dream interpretation. it is interesting to note in the bible that it never
00:08:18.421 --> 00:08:19.622
It is interesting to note in the bible that it never explicitly says that god
00:08:19.689 --> 00:08:20.923
In the bible that it never explicitly says that god gave joseph those dreams,
00:08:20.990 --> 00:08:22.892
Explicitly says that god gave joseph those dreams, but i think from the context
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:24.226
Gave joseph those dreams, but i think from the context we know for sure that he did.
00:08:24.293 --> 00:08:27.096
But i think from the context we know for sure that he did. we see that carried through
00:08:27.163 --> 00:08:28.631
We know for sure that he did. we see that carried through the nighttime visitations,
00:08:28.698 --> 00:08:30.666
We see that carried through the nighttime visitations, whether it's jacob with
00:08:30.733 --> 00:08:31.801
The nighttime visitations, whether it's jacob with the image of the ladders
00:08:31.867 --> 00:08:33.302
Whether it's jacob with the image of the ladders or throughout the book
00:08:33.369 --> 00:08:34.370
The image of the ladders or throughout the book of acts where people
00:08:34.437 --> 00:08:35.438
Or throughout the book of acts where people are having dreams and
00:08:35.504 --> 00:08:36.572
Of acts where people are having dreams and visions that are predicted,
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:38.040
Are having dreams and visions that are predicted, in the book of joel.
00:08:38.107 --> 00:08:39.442
Visions that are predicted, in the book of joel. so this is not a strange
00:08:39.508 --> 00:08:41.010
In the book of joel. so this is not a strange part of a believer's life.
00:08:41.077 --> 00:08:42.411
So this is not a strange part of a believer's life. this is something
00:08:42.478 --> 00:08:43.479
Part of a believer's life. this is something the holy spirit
00:08:43.546 --> 00:08:44.580
This is something the holy spirit still does today.
00:08:44.647 --> 00:08:45.815
The holy spirit still does today. blynda: but wouldn't you say
00:08:45.881 --> 00:08:47.016
Still does today. blynda: but wouldn't you say for someone watching,
00:08:47.083 --> 00:08:48.584
Blynda: but wouldn't you say for someone watching, that might sound foreign?
00:08:48.651 --> 00:08:50.720
For someone watching, that might sound foreign? we're talking about it here,
00:08:50.786 --> 00:08:52.021
That might sound foreign? we're talking about it here, but it might be something
00:08:52.088 --> 00:08:53.789
We're talking about it here, but it might be something that they haven't
00:08:53.856 --> 00:08:55.057
But it might be something that they haven't thought about.
00:08:55.124 --> 00:08:56.425
That they haven't thought about. first off, even the active
00:08:56.492 --> 00:08:57.827
Thought about. first off, even the active role the holy spirit
00:08:57.893 --> 00:08:58.928
First off, even the active role the holy spirit plays in their life,
00:08:58.995 --> 00:09:00.396
Role the holy spirit plays in their life, but that even there
00:09:00.463 --> 00:09:02.098
Plays in their life, but that even there can be that active move
00:09:02.164 --> 00:09:04.066
But that even there can be that active move in your dreams.
00:09:04.133 --> 00:09:05.401
Can be that active move in your dreams. margaret: i think for
00:09:05.468 --> 00:09:06.602
In your dreams. margaret: i think for some people who may say
00:09:06.669 --> 00:09:07.737
Margaret: i think for some people who may say this holy spirit,
00:09:07.803 --> 00:09:08.904
Some people who may say this holy spirit, it sounds strange or foreign.
00:09:08.971 --> 00:09:10.206
This holy spirit, it sounds strange or foreign. one of the practical
00:09:10.272 --> 00:09:11.307
It sounds strange or foreign. one of the practical challenges i would give
00:09:11.374 --> 00:09:12.575
One of the practical challenges i would give is to buy a small journal,
00:09:12.642 --> 00:09:13.809
Challenges i would give is to buy a small journal, keep it next to your bed,
00:09:13.876 --> 00:09:15.011
Is to buy a small journal, keep it next to your bed, and begin asking, holy spirit,
00:09:15.077 --> 00:09:16.245
Keep it next to your bed, and begin asking, holy spirit, would you speak to me
00:09:16.312 --> 00:09:17.313
And begin asking, holy spirit, would you speak to me through dreams?
00:09:17.380 --> 00:09:18.614
Would you speak to me through dreams? now basic physiology,
00:09:18.681 --> 00:09:20.182
Through dreams? now basic physiology, dreams are a gift created
00:09:20.249 --> 00:09:21.784
Now basic physiology, dreams are a gift created by god within us that often
00:09:21.851 --> 00:09:23.085
Dreams are a gift created by god within us that often are used to clear out
00:09:23.152 --> 00:09:24.253
By god within us that often are used to clear out the toxins in our minds.
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:26.088
Are used to clear out the toxins in our minds. they help us make sense and
00:09:26.155 --> 00:09:27.323
The toxins in our minds. they help us make sense and connections while we sleep.
00:09:27.390 --> 00:09:29.158
They help us make sense and connections while we sleep. but every dream that we have
00:09:29.225 --> 00:09:30.459
Connections while we sleep. but every dream that we have can become a prayer prompt
00:09:30.526 --> 00:09:31.761
But every dream that we have can become a prayer prompt to god to say, holy spirit,
00:09:31.827 --> 00:09:33.663
Can become a prayer prompt to god to say, holy spirit, what are you bringing
00:09:33.729 --> 00:09:34.830
To god to say, holy spirit, what are you bringing to the surface here?
00:09:34.897 --> 00:09:35.965
What are you bringing to the surface here? are you bringing anxieties?
00:09:36.032 --> 00:09:37.233
To the surface here? are you bringing anxieties? are you bringing fears?
00:09:37.299 --> 00:09:38.734
Are you bringing anxieties? are you bringing fears? or are you bringing something
00:09:38.801 --> 00:09:39.869
Are you bringing fears? or are you bringing something that i need to bring
00:09:39.935 --> 00:09:41.037
Or are you bringing something that i need to bring to you in prayer?
00:09:41.103 --> 00:09:42.338
That i need to bring to you in prayer? and when we approach
00:09:42.405 --> 00:09:43.439
To you in prayer? and when we approach with that humility
00:09:43.506 --> 00:09:44.507
And when we approach with that humility and that openhandedness,
00:09:44.573 --> 00:09:45.775
With that humility and that openhandedness, we start to see
00:09:45.841 --> 00:09:46.942
And that openhandedness, we start to see where holy spirit
00:09:47.009 --> 00:09:48.277
We start to see where holy spirit can be bringing things,
00:09:48.344 --> 00:09:49.645
Where holy spirit can be bringing things, communicating things, and
00:09:49.712 --> 00:09:50.846
Can be bringing things, communicating things, and leading and guiding us
00:09:50.913 --> 00:09:52.148
Communicating things, and leading and guiding us closer to the heart of christ.
00:09:52.214 --> 00:09:53.582
Leading and guiding us closer to the heart of christ. tammy: for those that
00:09:53.649 --> 00:09:54.650
Closer to the heart of christ. tammy: for those that might not understand
00:09:54.717 --> 00:09:55.718
Tammy: for those that might not understand what the role
00:09:55.785 --> 00:09:56.786
Might not understand what the role of the holy spirit is,
00:09:56.852 --> 00:09:57.953
What the role of the holy spirit is, because we're saying bring it
00:09:58.020 --> 00:09:59.121
Of the holy spirit is, because we're saying bring it to him, write the journal.
00:09:59.188 --> 00:10:00.256
Because we're saying bring it to him, write the journal. but some might go, but
00:10:00.322 --> 00:10:01.424
To him, write the journal. but some might go, but i don't know who him is.
00:10:01.490 --> 00:10:02.892
But some might go, but i don't know who him is. i've only referred to god,
00:10:02.958 --> 00:10:04.060
I don't know who him is. i've only referred to god, or i've only referred
00:10:04.126 --> 00:10:05.127
I've only referred to god, or i've only referred to jesus,
00:10:05.194 --> 00:10:06.195
Or i've only referred to jesus, but the holy spirit
00:10:06.262 --> 00:10:07.463
To jesus, but the holy spirit is mysterious to me
00:10:07.530 --> 00:10:08.597
But the holy spirit is mysterious to me so i don't really address him.
00:10:08.664 --> 00:10:10.132
Is mysterious to me so i don't really address him. i've heard about him,
00:10:10.199 --> 00:10:11.367
So i don't really address him. i've heard about him, and he's probably there
00:10:11.434 --> 00:10:12.368
I've heard about him, and he's probably there someplace.
00:10:12.435 --> 00:10:13.569
And he's probably there someplace. so if we're talking about him,
00:10:13.636 --> 00:10:14.737
Someplace. so if we're talking about him, what is his role, for those
00:10:14.804 --> 00:10:15.805
To really fully understand
00:10:16.972 --> 00:10:17.973
To really fully understand the role of the holy spirit.
00:10:18.040 --> 00:10:19.275
The role of the holy spirit. because often i have thought,
00:10:19.341 --> 00:10:20.743
Because often i have thought, and i asked a friend
00:10:20.810 --> 00:10:21.844
And i asked a friend the other day, if you have
00:10:21.911 --> 00:10:23.879
The other day, if you have ever felt like
00:10:23.946 --> 00:10:24.980
Because you've acknowledged
00:10:26.182 --> 00:10:27.349
Because you've acknowledged the holy spirit or
00:10:27.416 --> 00:10:28.718
Because you've acknowledged the holy spirit or you're disrespecting jesus
00:10:28.784 --> 00:10:29.919
The holy spirit or you're disrespecting jesus because you've gone
00:10:29.985 --> 00:10:31.153
You're disrespecting jesus because you've gone to the holy spirit.
00:10:31.220 --> 00:10:32.421
Because you've gone to the holy spirit. so for those that don't --
00:10:32.488 --> 00:10:33.489
To the holy spirit. so for those that don't -- what is his role?
00:10:33.556 --> 00:10:34.724
So for those that don't -- what is his role? you've got god the father,
00:10:34.790 --> 00:10:35.858
What is his role? you've got god the father, jesus the son,
00:10:35.925 --> 00:10:37.026
Margaret: so a few things.
00:10:38.461 --> 00:10:39.695
Margaret: so a few things. first of all, if you notice
00:10:39.762 --> 00:10:40.996
First of all, if you notice this conversation,
00:10:41.063 --> 00:10:42.231
This conversation, i have not been referring
00:10:42.298 --> 00:10:43.365
I have not been referring to the holy spirit.
00:10:43.432 --> 00:10:44.633
To the holy spirit. i've been referring
00:10:44.700 --> 00:10:45.735
I've been referring to holy spirit because
00:10:45.801 --> 00:10:46.869
I wouldn't say, "the jesus,"
00:10:48.204 --> 00:10:49.438
I wouldn't say, "the jesus," "the god."
00:10:49.505 --> 00:10:50.606
I wouldn't say, "the jesus," "the god." tammy: i love it.
00:10:50.673 --> 00:10:51.741
"the god." tammy: i love it. my family does the same thing.
00:10:51.807 --> 00:10:52.842
Tammy: i love it. my family does the same thing. they changed their language
00:10:52.908 --> 00:10:53.843
My family does the same thing. they changed their language years ago and i love that.
00:10:53.909 --> 00:10:55.010
They changed their language years ago and i love that. it's so true.
00:10:55.077 --> 00:10:56.145
Years ago and i love that. it's so true. margaret: so it's that
00:10:56.212 --> 00:10:57.279
It's so true. margaret: so it's that subtle reminder that
00:10:57.346 --> 00:10:58.347
Margaret: so it's that subtle reminder that we're talking to a person
00:10:58.414 --> 00:10:59.448
Subtle reminder that we're talking to a person of the godhead.
00:10:59.515 --> 00:11:00.549
We're talking to a person of the godhead. it is father, son and spirit.
00:11:00.616 --> 00:11:02.151
Of the godhead. it is father, son and spirit. one of the words
00:11:02.218 --> 00:11:03.319
It is father, son and spirit. one of the words that's really helped me,
00:11:03.385 --> 00:11:04.487
One of the words that's really helped me, it's a word called
00:11:04.553 --> 00:11:05.488
That's really helped me, it's a word called "perichoresis."
00:11:05.554 --> 00:11:06.622
It's a word called "perichoresis." it describes the internal
00:11:06.689 --> 00:11:07.690
"perichoresis." it describes the internal relationship of the trinity:
00:11:07.757 --> 00:11:09.058
It describes the internal relationship of the trinity: father, son, and spirit.
00:11:09.125 --> 00:11:11.093
Relationship of the trinity: father, son, and spirit. it describes it,
00:11:11.160 --> 00:11:12.328
Father, son, and spirit. it describes it, peri meaning around, and
00:11:12.394 --> 00:11:13.662
It describes it, peri meaning around, and choresis as a kind of dance.
00:11:13.729 --> 00:11:15.498
Peri meaning around, and choresis as a kind of dance. so it's a choreography.
00:11:15.564 --> 00:11:17.366
Choresis as a kind of dance. so it's a choreography. so in scripture, what we see
00:11:17.433 --> 00:11:18.634
So it's a choreography. so in scripture, what we see is that in certain parts
00:11:18.701 --> 00:11:19.835
So in scripture, what we see is that in certain parts of the bible, one member
00:11:19.902 --> 00:11:21.403
Is that in certain parts of the bible, one member of the trinity will
00:11:21.470 --> 00:11:22.471
Of the bible, one member of the trinity will take the lead, but
00:11:22.538 --> 00:11:23.572
Of the trinity will take the lead, but the others are always present.
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:25.908
Take the lead, but the others are always present. for instance, in creation,
00:11:25.975 --> 00:11:27.209
The others are always present. for instance, in creation, god takes the lead
00:11:27.276 --> 00:11:28.611
For instance, in creation, god takes the lead by speaking creation
00:11:28.677 --> 00:11:29.845
God takes the lead by speaking creation into existence.
00:11:29.912 --> 00:11:31.480
By speaking creation into existence. but in verse two,
00:11:31.547 --> 00:11:32.681
Into existence. but in verse two, as we've acknowledged,
00:11:32.748 --> 00:11:33.916
But in verse two, as we've acknowledged, holy spirit is there
00:11:33.983 --> 00:11:35.151
As we've acknowledged, holy spirit is there hovering over the chaos
00:11:35.217 --> 00:11:36.352
Holy spirit is there hovering over the chaos and the unknown.
00:11:36.418 --> 00:11:37.620
Hovering over the chaos and the unknown. the use of "we" in
00:11:37.686 --> 00:11:38.854
And the unknown. the use of "we" in the genesis story implies
00:11:38.921 --> 00:11:40.055
The use of "we" in the genesis story implies that christ is there, too.
00:11:40.122 --> 00:11:42.191
The genesis story implies that christ is there, too. so in the life of christ
00:11:42.258 --> 00:11:43.459
That christ is there, too. so in the life of christ we say christ,
00:11:43.526 --> 00:11:44.660
So in the life of christ we say christ, we see christ taking the lead.
00:11:44.727 --> 00:11:45.694
We say christ, we see christ taking the lead. but what do we see?
00:11:45.761 --> 00:11:46.796
We see christ taking the lead. but what do we see? we see the holy spirit
00:11:46.862 --> 00:11:47.863
But what do we see? we see the holy spirit descending like a dove
00:11:47.930 --> 00:11:48.931
We see the holy spirit descending like a dove at the baptism
00:11:48.998 --> 00:11:49.999
Descending like a dove at the baptism and the father echoing down,
00:11:50.065 --> 00:11:51.333
At the baptism and the father echoing down, "this is my son, in whom
00:11:51.400 --> 00:11:52.968
And the father echoing down, "this is my son, in whom i am well pleased.
00:11:53.035 --> 00:11:54.170
"this is my son, in whom i am well pleased. listen to him."
00:11:54.236 --> 00:11:56.739
I am well pleased. listen to him." so to refer to someone,
00:11:56.806 --> 00:11:58.140
Listen to him." so to refer to someone, oh, i'm only talking to god.
00:11:58.207 --> 00:11:59.275
So to refer to someone, oh, i'm only talking to god. i'm only talking to jesus.
00:11:59.341 --> 00:12:00.676
Oh, i'm only talking to god. i'm only talking to jesus. i thought about this,
00:12:00.743 --> 00:12:01.811
I'm only talking to jesus. i thought about this, and this is a very --
00:12:01.877 --> 00:12:03.345
I thought about this, and this is a very -- it's a very
00:12:03.412 --> 00:12:04.446
And this is a very -- it's a very imperfect comparison.
00:12:04.513 --> 00:12:05.781
It's a very imperfect comparison. but if somebody called you
00:12:05.848 --> 00:12:06.849
Imperfect comparison. but if somebody called you by your first or middle
00:12:06.916 --> 00:12:08.117
But if somebody called you by your first or middle or last name to address you,
00:12:08.184 --> 00:12:10.152
By your first or middle or last name to address you, it would just be great
00:12:10.219 --> 00:12:11.720
Or last name to address you, it would just be great to be addressed.
00:12:11.787 --> 00:12:13.322
It would just be great to be addressed. i think the father heart
00:12:13.389 --> 00:12:15.357
To be addressed. i think the father heart and the spirit and jesus
00:12:15.424 --> 00:12:17.026
I think the father heart and the spirit and jesus are just the same.
00:12:17.092 --> 00:12:19.028
And the spirit and jesus are just the same. i also think that sometimes,
00:12:19.094 --> 00:12:20.496
Are just the same. i also think that sometimes, because of our creeds
00:12:20.563 --> 00:12:21.864
I also think that sometimes, because of our creeds and our hymns, we often
00:12:21.931 --> 00:12:23.499
Because of our creeds and our hymns, we often say father, son, and spirit.
00:12:23.566 --> 00:12:25.201
And our hymns, we often say father, son, and spirit. and it is not implied,
00:12:25.267 --> 00:12:26.569
Say father, son, and spirit. and it is not implied, but i know in my own mind
00:12:26.635 --> 00:12:28.270
And it is not implied, but i know in my own mind i often wrestle
00:12:28.337 --> 00:12:29.738
But i know in my own mind i often wrestle with that idea that
00:12:29.805 --> 00:12:31.006
I often wrestle with that idea that there's three in a list;
00:12:31.073 --> 00:12:32.308
With that idea that there's three in a list; the third may somehow
00:12:32.374 --> 00:12:33.442
There's three in a list; the third may somehow be lesser than.
00:12:33.509 --> 00:12:34.844
The third may somehow be lesser than. tammy: that's so interesting,
00:12:34.910 --> 00:12:35.978
Be lesser than. tammy: that's so interesting, margaret.
00:12:36.045 --> 00:12:37.179
Tammy: that's so interesting, margaret. and yes, i could see that.
00:12:37.246 --> 00:12:38.347
Margaret. and yes, i could see that. margaret: the trinity
00:12:38.414 --> 00:12:40.115
And yes, i could see that. margaret: the trinity is equal, and just as
00:12:40.182 --> 00:12:41.417
Margaret: the trinity is equal, and just as you can have a relationship
00:12:41.483 --> 00:12:42.518
Is equal, and just as you can have a relationship with god the father,
00:12:42.585 --> 00:12:43.686
You can have a relationship with god the father, you can have a relationship
00:12:43.752 --> 00:12:44.854
With god the father, you can have a relationship with jesus christ,
00:12:44.920 --> 00:12:45.955
You can have a relationship with jesus christ, you can have a relationship
00:12:46.021 --> 00:12:47.056
With jesus christ, you can have a relationship with holy spirit.
00:12:47.122 --> 00:12:48.190
You can have a relationship with holy spirit. jesus intended,
00:12:48.257 --> 00:12:49.725
With holy spirit. jesus intended, at his departure he says,
00:12:49.792 --> 00:12:50.926
Jesus intended, at his departure he says, i am going to send
00:12:50.993 --> 00:12:52.027

I saw this really cute, bright colored purse, and i immediately thought

I said, i just need to buy it for her. i'm not a super purse person.
00:15:04.994 --> 00:15:06.295
To buy it for her. i'm not a super purse person. i've never bought her a purse.
00:15:06.362 --> 00:15:07.663
I'm not a super purse person. i've never bought her a purse. i was like, i'm doing it.
00:15:07.730 --> 00:15:09.031

00:15:09.098 --> 00:15:10.632
I was like, i'm doing it. so i put it in the cart, sent it to her.
00:15:10.699 --> 00:15:11.700
So i put it in the cart, sent it to her. about ten days later,
00:15:11.767 --> 00:15:12.768
Sent it to her. about ten days later, she texts me and she goes,
00:15:12.835 --> 00:15:14.136
About ten days later, she texts me and she goes, "margaret, how did you know?
00:15:14.203 --> 00:15:15.270
She texts me and she goes, "margaret, how did you know? did you know about
00:15:15.337 --> 00:15:16.338
"margaret, how did you know? did you know about my easter meltdown?"
00:15:16.405 --> 00:15:17.406
Did you know about my easter meltdown?" and i was like,
00:15:17.473 --> 00:15:18.474
My easter meltdown?" and i was like, "no. i didn't know."
00:15:18.540 --> 00:15:19.541
And i was like, "no. i didn't know." and she begins to describe,
00:15:19.608 --> 00:15:20.709
"no. i didn't know." and she begins to describe, and i had known this,
00:15:20.776 --> 00:15:21.844
And she begins to describe, and i had known this, that her mother had died
00:15:21.910 --> 00:15:23.012
And i had known this, that her mother had died last year.
00:15:23.078 --> 00:15:24.079
That her mother had died last year. what i didn't know is that
00:15:24.146 --> 00:15:25.481
Last year. what i didn't know is that every easter, her mom would
00:15:25.547 --> 00:15:27.182
What i didn't know is that every easter, her mom would buy her an easter dress
00:15:27.249 --> 00:15:28.751
Every easter, her mom would buy her an easter dress and easter purse.
00:15:28.817 --> 00:15:31.453
Buy her an easter dress and easter purse. this easter came around,
00:15:31.520 --> 00:15:33.322
And easter purse. this easter came around, and she could financially
00:15:33.389 --> 00:15:34.590
This easter came around, and she could financially justify buying the dress, but
00:15:34.656 --> 00:15:36.592
And she could financially justify buying the dress, but she couldn't buy the purse.
00:15:36.658 --> 00:15:38.761
Justify buying the dress, but she couldn't buy the purse. so she opens up this box,
00:15:38.827 --> 00:15:40.396
She couldn't buy the purse. so she opens up this box, and inside is not just
00:15:40.462 --> 00:15:41.430
So she opens up this box, and inside is not just an ordinary purse,
00:15:41.497 --> 00:15:42.831
And inside is not just an ordinary purse, but an easter purse.
00:15:42.898 --> 00:15:44.700
An ordinary purse, but an easter purse. she pulls it out,
00:15:44.767 --> 00:15:45.968
But an easter purse. she pulls it out, and the color of that purse
00:15:46.035 --> 00:15:47.936
She pulls it out, and the color of that purse perfectly matches
00:15:48.003 --> 00:15:49.838
And the color of that purse perfectly matches the easter dress
00:15:49.905 --> 00:15:51.407
Perfectly matches the easter dress that she had bought.
00:15:51.473 --> 00:15:53.342
The easter dress that she had bought. blynda: how sweet is that?
00:15:53.409 --> 00:15:54.476
That she had bought. blynda: how sweet is that? margaret: and so we start
00:15:54.543 --> 00:15:55.644
Blynda: how sweet is that? margaret: and so we start to see these moments that
00:15:55.711 --> 00:15:56.812
Margaret: and so we start to see these moments that you can't orchestrate.
00:15:56.879 --> 00:15:57.880
To see these moments that you can't orchestrate. like you can't make that up.
00:15:57.946 --> 00:15:59.281
You can't orchestrate. like you can't make that up. the odds are so ridiculous.
00:15:59.348 --> 00:16:01.216
Like you can't make that up. the odds are so ridiculous. but when we start to have
00:16:01.283 --> 00:16:02.518
The odds are so ridiculous. but when we start to have those little impulses,
00:16:02.584 --> 00:16:03.685
But when we start to have those little impulses, almost like a muscle that
00:16:03.752 --> 00:16:04.820
Those little impulses, almost like a muscle that get stronger and stronger
00:16:04.887 --> 00:16:05.988
Almost like a muscle that get stronger and stronger and that knower,
00:16:06.055 --> 00:16:07.122
Get stronger and stronger and that knower, and we start to act on them.
00:16:07.189 --> 00:16:08.357
And that knower, and we start to act on them. we go, oh, look at what
00:16:08.424 --> 00:16:09.525
And we start to act on them. we go, oh, look at what holy spirit did.
00:16:09.591 --> 00:16:10.592
We go, oh, look at what holy spirit did. that's exciting.
00:16:10.659 --> 00:16:11.660

That's fun! that's part of the purpose-filled life.

That's part of the purpose-filled life. i mean, i know it happens
00:16:14.930 --> 00:16:16.231
The purpose-filled life. i mean, i know it happens for you all the time!

For you all the time! tammy: we talked about that in the car, too, and

Tammy: we talked about that in the car, too, and the excitement that i feel.
00:16:19.635 --> 00:16:20.702
In the car, too, and the excitement that i feel. i think it's because
00:16:20.769 --> 00:16:21.770
The excitement that i feel. i think it's because it helps me to feel like
00:16:21.837 --> 00:16:23.205
I'm discerning
00:16:24.373 --> 00:16:25.340

I'm in the middle of it. i think that, for my faith,

I was walking out with a starbucks, and i looked at her
00:16:47.496 --> 00:16:48.497
With a starbucks, and i looked at her and i instantly was like,
00:16:48.564 --> 00:16:49.565
And i looked at her and i instantly was like, go help her.
00:16:49.631 --> 00:16:50.632
And i instantly was like, go help her. but then some people don't
00:16:50.699 --> 00:16:51.700
So i don't want her
00:16:52.868 --> 00:16:53.836
So i don't want her to feel like you need help.
00:16:53.902 --> 00:16:54.937
To feel like you need help. but i walked over and
00:16:55.003 --> 00:16:56.004
But i walked over and i said, "can i help you?"
00:16:56.071 --> 00:16:57.106
I said, "can i help you?" she said, "oh no, no.
00:16:57.172 --> 00:16:58.173
She said, "oh no, no. i don't need help."
00:16:58.240 --> 00:16:59.241
I don't need help." i said, "i would love
00:16:59.308 --> 00:17:00.309
I started picking up
00:17:01.477 --> 00:17:02.444
I started picking up these heavy things
00:17:02.511 --> 00:17:03.512
I started picking up these heavy things and handing them to her.
00:17:03.579 --> 00:17:04.580
These heavy things and handing them to her. i said, "see, look!
00:17:04.646 --> 00:17:05.647
And handing them to her. i said, "see, look! it's going to go quicker
00:17:05.714 --> 00:17:06.715
I said, "see, look! it's going to go quicker if you let me help you."
00:17:06.782 --> 00:17:08.050
It's going to go quicker if you let me help you." and i said, "and plus,
00:17:08.117 --> 00:17:09.118
If you let me help you." and i said, "and plus, some day i might need
00:17:09.184 --> 00:17:10.219
And i said, "and plus, some day i might need someone's help.
00:17:10.285 --> 00:17:11.286
Some day i might need someone's help. and so i want to be able
00:17:11.353 --> 00:17:12.855
Someone's help. and so i want to be able to take their help."
00:17:12.921 --> 00:17:13.922
And so i want to be able to take their help." i finished and i said,
00:17:13.989 --> 00:17:14.990
To take their help." i finished and i said, "god bless you so much.
00:17:15.057 --> 00:17:16.125
I finished and i said, "god bless you so much. i just want you to know
00:17:16.191 --> 00:17:17.459
"god bless you so much. i just want you to know that god loves you and
00:17:17.526 --> 00:17:18.560
I just want you to know that god loves you and he knows exactly what you need
00:17:18.627 --> 00:17:19.928
That god loves you and he knows exactly what you need at exactly the right moment,
00:17:19.995 --> 00:17:21.730
He knows exactly what you need at exactly the right moment, even if it was just
00:17:21.797 --> 00:17:22.831
At exactly the right moment, even if it was just sending me here to help you."
00:17:22.898 --> 00:17:25.167
Even if it was just sending me here to help you." she said, "you know what?

Sending me here to help you." she said, "you know what? i just started to go
00:17:27.136 --> 00:17:28.170
She said, "you know what? i just started to go to church lately.
00:17:28.237 --> 00:17:29.505
I just started to go to church lately. just recently,
00:17:29.571 --> 00:17:30.672
To church lately. just recently, i just started going." right?
00:17:30.739 --> 00:17:31.840
Just recently, i just started going." right? i just kind of --
00:17:31.907 --> 00:17:32.941
I just started going." right? i just kind of -- my whole spirit just went.

My whole spirit just went. she said, "so thank you so much for that."
00:17:35.277 --> 00:17:36.512
She said, "so thank you so much for that." i walked away, i got in
00:17:36.578 --> 00:17:37.579
So much for that." i walked away, i got in my car and i was like giddy,
00:17:37.646 --> 00:17:39.481
I walked away, i got in my car and i was like giddy, like giddy.
00:17:39.548 --> 00:17:41.116
My car and i was like giddy, like giddy. i loved it because
00:17:41.183 --> 00:17:42.284
Like giddy. i loved it because not just that god was
00:17:42.351 --> 00:17:43.619
I loved it because not just that god was stretching me,
00:17:43.685 --> 00:17:44.786
Not just that god was stretching me, holy spirit was stretching me,
00:17:44.853 --> 00:17:46.321
Stretching me, holy spirit was stretching me, but something happened
00:17:46.388 --> 00:17:47.456
Holy spirit was stretching me, but something happened for her at that moment.
00:17:47.523 --> 00:17:48.524
But something happened for her at that moment. she might have been praying,
00:17:48.590 --> 00:17:49.625
For her at that moment. she might have been praying, i'm so sick of
00:17:49.691 --> 00:17:50.659
She might have been praying, i'm so sick of the condition i'm in.
00:17:50.726 --> 00:17:51.827
I'm so sick of the condition i'm in. i can't help myself, but
00:17:51.894 --> 00:17:53.028
The condition i'm in. i can't help myself, but i can't ask for help.
00:17:53.095 --> 00:17:54.329
I can't help myself, but i can't ask for help. i'm just exhausted.
00:17:54.396 --> 00:17:55.597
I can't ask for help. i'm just exhausted. and here somebody came.
00:17:55.664 --> 00:17:57.299
I'm just exhausted. and here somebody came. the holy spirit showed up.
00:17:57.366 --> 00:17:58.967
And here somebody came. the holy spirit showed up. the spirit of god,
00:17:59.034 --> 00:18:00.202
The holy spirit showed up. the spirit of god, god showed up.
00:18:00.269 --> 00:18:01.537
The spirit of god, god showed up. jesus, all three of
00:18:01.603 --> 00:18:02.538
God showed up. jesus, all three of the trinity, and just let her
00:18:02.604 --> 00:18:03.772
Jesus, all three of the trinity, and just let her know, you're not alone.
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:05.507
The trinity, and just let her know, you're not alone. i think so many people
00:18:05.574 --> 00:18:06.642
Know, you're not alone. i think so many people need to know that.
00:18:06.708 --> 00:18:07.676
I think so many people need to know that. but we also need to know,
00:18:07.743 --> 00:18:09.011
Need to know that. but we also need to know, as we grow in our faith,
00:18:09.077 --> 00:18:10.245
But we also need to know, as we grow in our faith, how to discern holy spirit.
00:18:10.312 --> 00:18:11.747
As we grow in our faith, how to discern holy spirit. how can we do that best?
00:18:11.813 --> 00:18:13.115
How to discern holy spirit. how can we do that best? margaret: i think there's
00:18:13.182 --> 00:18:14.183
How can we do that best? margaret: i think there's some basic questions.
00:18:14.249 --> 00:18:15.250
Margaret: i think there's some basic questions. number one: does it line up
00:18:15.317 --> 00:18:16.618
Some basic questions. number one: does it line up with scripture?
00:18:16.685 --> 00:18:17.686
Number one: does it line up with scripture? does it line up with
00:18:17.753 --> 00:18:18.787
Does it increase
00:18:19.955 --> 00:18:20.923
Does it increase my dependence on god?
00:18:20.989 --> 00:18:21.990
My dependence on god? in other words, it will
00:18:22.057 --> 00:18:23.125
In other words, it will give me a sense of peace,
00:18:23.192 --> 00:18:24.560
Give me a sense of peace, but first, i'm probably going
00:18:24.626 --> 00:18:25.694
But first, i'm probably going to have to feel unsettled
00:18:25.761 --> 00:18:27.396
To have to feel unsettled because it's moving me
00:18:27.462 --> 00:18:28.597
My own self-tendencies.
00:18:30.065 --> 00:18:33.902
My own self-tendencies. i think another one is,
00:18:33.969 --> 00:18:35.737
My own self-tendencies. i think another one is, does it produce the fruit
00:18:35.804 --> 00:18:37.239
I think another one is, does it produce the fruit of the spirit in our lives?
00:18:37.306 --> 00:18:38.607
Does it produce the fruit of the spirit in our lives? i think when we get
00:18:38.674 --> 00:18:39.808
Of the spirit in our lives? i think when we get those impulses to go, to do,
00:18:39.875 --> 00:18:41.310
I think when we get those impulses to go, to do, to say, to apologize, to give,
00:18:41.376 --> 00:18:43.779
Those impulses to go, to do, to say, to apologize, to give, when we start doing that
00:18:43.845 --> 00:18:44.947
To say, to apologize, to give, when we start doing that and stepping out and seeing
00:18:45.013 --> 00:18:46.081
When we start doing that and stepping out and seeing the exact fruit that
00:18:46.148 --> 00:18:47.216
And stepping out and seeing the exact fruit that you're describing, and then
00:18:47.282 --> 00:18:48.383
The exact fruit that you're describing, and then we start talking about it
00:18:48.450 --> 00:18:49.451
You're describing, and then we start talking about it with others, it creates this
00:18:49.518 --> 00:18:50.552
We start talking about it with others, it creates this contagious hunger to know
00:18:50.619 --> 00:18:52.988
With others, it creates this contagious hunger to know and experience holy spirit.
00:18:53.055 --> 00:18:54.389
Contagious hunger to know and experience holy spirit. tammy: to look for
00:18:54.456 --> 00:18:55.424
And experience holy spirit. tammy: to look for the assignment,
00:18:55.490 --> 00:18:56.458
Tammy: to look for the assignment, to look for the appointment,
00:18:56.525 --> 00:18:57.559
The assignment, to look for the appointment, and to keep longing
00:18:57.626 --> 00:18:58.827
To look for the appointment, and to keep longing to grow in your relationship
00:18:58.894 --> 00:18:59.962

To grow, days like this and learning about holy spirit,
00:19:09.071 --> 00:19:10.339
And learning about holy spirit, and discerning that

Erwin: this is pastor lutzer.
00:23:39.641 --> 00:23:41.776
Erwin: this is pastor lutzer. perhaps as you look at
00:23:41.843 --> 00:23:43.278
Perhaps as you look at the religions of the world,
00:23:43.345 --> 00:23:44.579
The religions of the world, you ask yourself,
00:23:44.646 --> 00:23:46.381
The only way to the father?
00:23:48.550 --> 00:23:50.819
The only way to the father? after all, there are lots
00:23:50.886 --> 00:23:52.387
The only way to the father? after all, there are lots of religious options
00:23:52.454 --> 00:23:54.623
After all, there are lots of religious options to choose from.
00:23:54.689 --> 00:23:56.691
Of religious options to choose from. well, the answer
00:23:56.758 --> 00:23:57.859
To choose from. well, the answer is simply this.
00:23:57.926 --> 00:23:59.194
Well, the answer is simply this. that other religions
00:23:59.261 --> 00:24:00.495
Is simply this. that other religions have gurus and prophets,
00:24:00.562 --> 00:24:01.796
That other religions have gurus and prophets, they have teachers,
00:24:01.863 --> 00:24:03.398
Have gurus and prophets, they have teachers, but what they don't have
00:24:03.465 --> 00:24:05.200
They have teachers, but what they don't have is a savior who can
00:24:05.267 --> 00:24:06.768
But what they don't have is a savior who can actually forgive our sins,
00:24:06.835 --> 00:24:09.104
Is a savior who can actually forgive our sins, clean us off, so to speak,
00:24:09.170 --> 00:24:11.106
Actually forgive our sins, clean us off, so to speak, and present us to god
00:24:11.172 --> 00:24:12.541
Clean us off, so to speak, and present us to god the father as perfect.
00:24:12.607 --> 00:24:15.210
And present us to god the father as perfect. jesus is the only one who
00:24:15.277 --> 00:24:17.679
The father as perfect. jesus is the only one who has those qualifications.
00:24:17.746 --> 00:24:20.815
Jesus is the only one who has those qualifications. he was born sinless.
00:24:20.882 --> 00:24:23.084
Has those qualifications. he was born sinless. all the other teachers
00:24:23.151 --> 00:24:24.486
He was born sinless. all the other teachers have sin and they admit
00:24:24.553 --> 00:24:26.354
All the other teachers have sin and they admit to their sinfulness
00:24:26.421 --> 00:24:27.789
Have sin and they admit to their sinfulness and their failures.
00:24:27.856 --> 00:24:29.291
To their sinfulness and their failures. jesus was absolutely perfect.
00:24:29.357 --> 00:24:31.359
And their failures. jesus was absolutely perfect. and the good news is when
00:24:31.426 --> 00:24:33.261
Jesus was absolutely perfect. and the good news is when we are falling into sin,
00:24:33.328 --> 00:24:35.030
And the good news is when we are falling into sin, so to speak, we need someone
00:24:35.096 --> 00:24:36.798
We are falling into sin, so to speak, we need someone who is not a part
00:24:36.865 --> 00:24:38.099
So to speak, we need someone who is not a part of our predicament.
00:24:38.166 --> 00:24:39.334
Who is not a part of our predicament. and jesus is not a part
00:24:39.401 --> 00:24:41.269
Of our predicament. and jesus is not a part of our predicament.
00:24:41.336 --> 00:24:42.804
And jesus is not a part of our predicament. he became one of us
00:24:42.871 --> 00:24:44.005
Of our predicament. he became one of us in the flesh, but
00:24:44.072 --> 00:24:45.540
He became one of us in the flesh, but absolutely sinless
00:24:45.607 --> 00:24:47.776
In the flesh, but absolutely sinless to take us to the father.
00:24:47.842 --> 00:24:50.378
Absolutely sinless to take us to the father. i want you to think about
00:24:50.445 --> 00:24:51.613
To take us to the father. i want you to think about the claims of jesus
00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:52.881
I want you to think about the claims of jesus that we hear so much about
00:24:52.948 --> 00:24:54.215
The claims of jesus that we hear so much about and we forget
00:24:54.282 --> 00:24:55.450
That we hear so much about and we forget how significant they are.
00:24:55.517 --> 00:24:57.419
And we forget how significant they are. lenin believed that
00:24:57.485 --> 00:24:58.653
How significant they are. lenin believed that if communism were to
00:24:58.720 --> 00:25:00.121
Lenin believed that if communism were to overtake russia there would
00:25:00.188 --> 00:25:01.756
If communism were to overtake russia there would be bread on every table.
00:25:01.823 --> 00:25:04.392
Overtake russia there would be bread on every table. but he never had the nerve
00:25:04.459 --> 00:25:05.794
Be bread on every table. but he never had the nerve to say, "i am the bread
00:25:05.860 --> 00:25:08.029
But he never had the nerve to say, "i am the bread of life.
00:25:08.096 --> 00:25:09.397
Shall never hunger.
00:25:10.732 --> 00:25:12.033
Shall never hunger. he who believes in me
00:25:12.100 --> 00:25:14.269
He who believes in me shall never thirst."
00:25:14.336 --> 00:25:16.371
Shall never thirst." freud actually believed
00:25:16.438 --> 00:25:17.973
Freud actually believed that psychotherapy
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:19.240
With all their ailments.
00:25:20.542 --> 00:25:22.077
With all their ailments. we can debate whether
00:25:22.143 --> 00:25:23.278
With all their ailments. we can debate whether or not that came to pass
00:25:23.345 --> 00:25:24.713
We can debate whether or not that came to pass but freud would have never
00:25:24.779 --> 00:25:26.848
Or not that came to pass but freud would have never had the nerve to say,
00:25:26.915 --> 00:25:28.850
But freud would have never had the nerve to say, "peace i leave with you.
00:25:28.917 --> 00:25:30.185
Had the nerve to say, "peace i leave with you. my peace i give unto you
00:25:30.251 --> 00:25:32.287
"peace i leave with you. my peace i give unto you not as the world gives
00:25:32.354 --> 00:25:33.688
My peace i give unto you not as the world gives give i unto you.
00:25:33.755 --> 00:25:35.357
Not as the world gives give i unto you. let not your heart
00:25:35.423 --> 00:25:36.524
Give i unto you. let not your heart be troubled,
00:25:36.591 --> 00:25:37.759
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
00:25:37.826 --> 00:25:39.394
Be troubled, neither let it be afraid." imagine that,
00:25:39.461 --> 00:25:40.895
Neither let it be afraid." imagine that, "my peace i give to you."
00:25:40.962 --> 00:25:44.633
Imagine that, "my peace i give to you." one other example.
00:25:44.699 --> 00:25:45.934
"my peace i give to you." one other example. krishna believed,
00:25:46.001 --> 00:25:47.535
One other example. krishna believed, of course, in reincarnation.
00:25:47.602 --> 00:25:50.405
Krishna believed, of course, in reincarnation. but he never had the nerve
00:25:50.472 --> 00:25:51.873
Of course, in reincarnation. but he never had the nerve to say what jesus said,
00:25:51.940 --> 00:25:54.275
But he never had the nerve to say what jesus said, "i am the resurrection
00:25:54.342 --> 00:25:55.910
To say what jesus said, "i am the resurrection and the life.
00:25:55.977 --> 00:25:57.512
"i am the resurrection and the life. he who believes in me,
00:25:57.579 --> 00:25:58.713
And the life. he who believes in me, though he were dead,
00:25:58.780 --> 00:26:00.015
He who believes in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.
00:26:00.081 --> 00:26:01.516
Though he were dead, yet shall he live. and whosoever lives
00:26:01.583 --> 00:26:02.751
Yet shall he live. and whosoever lives and believes in me
00:26:02.817 --> 00:26:04.319
And whosoever lives and believes in me shall never die."
00:26:04.386 --> 00:26:06.821
And believes in me shall never die." you say, well, pastor lutzer,
00:26:06.888 --> 00:26:08.223
Shall never die." you say, well, pastor lutzer, i have some doubts about

You say, well, pastor lutzer, i have some doubts about the christian faith.

As you are with your doubts? i can assure you, he can handle them.

I can assure you, he can handle them. there is a song i like

He can handle them. there is a song i like and one of the stanzas

There is a song i like and one of the stanzas says these words,
00:26:24.539 --> 00:26:26.875
And one of the stanzas says these words, "just as i am
